Install your router

If you already have an existing router, skip to Core. If you have a Teltonika router from the Sensa shop, follow the steps below.

Your router provides your van's network, so it goes in before your Core. A new router arrives with Teltonika's standard settings. You will fit it and prepare it here, and Sensa can set up its networks for you once your Core is running.

1. Fit the router​

Choose a dry, fixed spot, and connect the antennas that came in the box. Teltonika's instructions show which antenna goes on which connector.

2. Connect the power​

The router runs directly from your van's 12 V supply. Wire it so that it has power whenever you want to use your system, because your screens and most of your controls rely on its network.

3. Sign in to the router​

  1. Connect a phone or laptop to the router, using the Wi-Fi name and password on the router's label.
  2. Open a web browser and go to https://192.168.1.1.
  3. Sign in as admin, using the password on the label.
  4. When the router asks you to choose a new password, choose one and keep a note of it. Sensa will ask for it later.

4. Turn on the router's API​

Sensa talks to your router through its API, which is not always switched on. Go to System, Administration, Access Control and turn on:

  • HTTPS management for the LAN
  • The HTTPS REST API
  • Basic Authentication

Leave remote (WAN side) access switched off.

Your router and Starlink must not use the same addresses. See Configure Starlink.

What to do next​

Now set up your Core, and plug it into a spare socket on the router.

Once your Core is running, Configure Router sets up your van's separate networks.
